Determining a person's submaximal load involves assessing the amount of weight that can be lifted at a level lower than the maximum lift (1RM, or one-repetition maximum). The methods used for this assessment include percentages of body mass, absolute load, and percentages of 1RM, as these approaches provide direct measurements related to physical capacity and establish a framework for understanding submaximal effort.

Heart rate monitoring, while a valuable tool for assessing cardiovascular response to exercise, does not directly measure the load a person can lift. Instead, it reflects the physiological response to activity and helps gauge exertion levels during cardiovascular workouts rather than strength training. Therefore, it does not serve as a method for directly determining submax load in a strength context.
